We came here last night to celebrate my wife's birthday with our son, and the three of us had an absolutely wonderful dinner. The food was completely off the charts, and the service was excellent. We will definitely be back! Much Thanks to Kendra, Chef Tony and the entire staff!
Appetizers and entrées were excellent, perfectly prepared and seasoned, and the staff was very attentive. Making sure our water glasses were filled all the time we highly recommend this place.
Nice ambience-unique and cool vibe in the Mingei Museum. Creative cocktails and creative sauces/menu - adequate number of choices with quality emphasis.
